I like those, good price too. I wish I would have seen that before I bought my wheels.
I was only looking for 18's though, those don't really look too big.

wow, unless your turbo is an early offset i hate to tell you the rears wont fit w/o major rubbing issues. ive always loved that particular rial wheel and you got an amazing buy, however i know that a 19x11et45 wont fit a late offset 951 w/o massive amounts of rubbing. but, like you said, you shouldn't have an issue reselling them if it comes to that.
-vc

edit i see your car is an 86 so the offsets shouldn't be a problem with the right size spacer. g/l either way

I think they look great! The only other possible issue is if you want to track your car. There is a lot less choice in rubber and it will be more expensive with the 19"s.

Oh, that car

Anyways, those do look great! I'll give you $400 (broke right now) for them if they don't fit your offset

Those wheels should look great if you can get them to fit. Good luck and post pics.
